Like a spider’s web
Droplets dance on feathered ends
Aglow in sunlight

Colleen’s challenge this week is synonyms only. The words are Search and Lost. I chose Chase & Hidden.
Crepuscular rays
Though hidden by evening clouds
Chase away darkness

Adrift, amongst clouds of white
My balloon seeks out the morning light
Sunbeams shine, the warmth it soothes
As one with the wind, my home moves
Blowing freely, with nothing to tether
Together, we fly, light as a feather
With the crisp, clean air that fills my chest
I’ll sail, forever, on this liberating quest

Wings so golden
Gossamer strands
Hair of white
With the palest hands
She hides from sight
So they cannot see
Behind tall reeds
Shroud in mystery
A fae like no other
Floral crown on her head
Unspoken beauty
On a lush verdant bed
Eyes looking down
As tears flow from within
She can’t catch her breath
Her mind, in a spin
How could they leave her?
This fragile little sprite
Who can she cling to?
There’s no one in sight
Saddened by betrayal
She weeps, silently, and still
Gathers herself, defiantly
Born with a stronger will
Knowing now, what she must do
To forget this horrid pain
She’ll stretch out her wings, take to the sky
And rise up, once again!

Dragon’s keep
Where wee ones close by
Sit and play
Without care
Knowing they are protected
By winged warriors
